If i light incense, i like the fragrance.. when i bow, i acknowledge the wholeness we/us/Life represent.. generally, i establish central equilibrium in a stationary standing posture, then.. allow the mind to find its stillness.. at some point i will be inspired to move, allowing my discipline to express itself in the movements of Taiji.. after an interval of the movement's own choosing, the Taiji dissipates into pure perception, clarity.. possibly by just walking and experiencing or by sitting and observing, then.. after an interval of its own choosing, i express gratitude for the opportunity of Life and its potential.. and, i venture into Life with as much clarity as situations allow..

Be well..

Exactly. I like this. For me, the experience is completely free, I might not experience the things I spoke above before any other time ever again, it is completely spontanious. Anything can happen lol

When the spiritual teacher and his disciples began their evening meditation, a cat who lived in the monastery made such noise that it distracted them. One day the teacher ordered that the cat be tied up during the evening practice. Years later, when the teacher died, the cat continued to be tied up during the meditation session. And when the cat eventually died, another cat was brought to the monastery and tied up. Centuries later, learned descendants of the spiritual teacher wrote scholarly treatises about the religious significance of tying up a cat for meditation practice.
